    Here's my fake plate for car shows. I recently got my vanity plate so I have no pictures of it yet, but it says "BELISMA." Stupid 7-character limit -- with 8 I could have at least gotten "BELISIMA."

    I got this plate years ago, but only recently transferred it to the 348.

    It's the first part of my name, the first letter of my last name and the 66 signifies that I am only two thirds evil.

    Technically, the front plate is illegal as the Y and the A have a space betwen them. I've been stopped by the Police for that.

    Evidently, there were no other crimes being commited that day.

    The UK must be the worst place to spot naff, miss-spaced and silly font vanity plates anywhere in the world.....eVar! The Ferrari 456 with the "B&O" vanity plate is laughable........:eek:

    Didn't think my plate was that bad.

    Ah well. :)

    That's got to be one of the best UK plates I've ever seen. :D

    I once saw an F355 Berlinetta in Berkshire, England that had the numberplate: 6ONE (i.e. 'GONE'). :)

    What's so cool about having the plate "6ONE/GONE" on your car? As I said, naff, miss-spaced with a black dot strategically placed in the "6" tat. The UK rules the world for crap plates......

    Need I say anymore, owned by "Sharon":

    Rather than buy a vanity plate with my name on, I'm going to change my name by deed-poll to "AE58GBW"! ;)

    I don't recall any strategically placed dots. But anyway... it's personal choice, isn't it? You either think it's quirky, or you don't. It'd be a boring world if everyone agreed on everything. ;)

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    There is a law regarding the plate and font regulations, it's just that sooo many flaunt them. There are people on here (in the UK) who do not even fit front number plates to their Ferrari and use the excuse that "it fell off officer"! Ferrari ownership doesn't necessarily bring class! :)

    Does that sort of thing ever remind you of the schoolboys in who would untuck their shirts to 'look cool' and have a teacher order them to straighten their uniform, only to untuck them again once they were 5 paces away? :confused:

    Yeah, it is an unusual shade. I kind of like it too.
    Makes a great change from the G. Fly we usually see.

    I could be wrong, but I reckon it IS Giallo. It looks to be an average quality pic with poor light, which makes it look lighter than it actually is. :):)

    But..............I could be wrong. Looking forward to finding out. :D:D

    Awesome car Reg! :):)

    Cool plate too. ;);)

    Is that the original FAF dealer frame? Looks like OEM.
